Aberdeen councilman suing Monroe County, sheriff’s department for wrongful confinement
SUMMARY: Aberdeen, Mississippi city councilman Nicholas Holliday is suing Monroe County and the sheriff’s department for alleged Fourth Amendment rights violations. He filed a lawsuit after being held at the Monroe County jail for hours during a December incident. Holliday was at a store called the Gas Station when deputies conducted a search warrant, leading to the arrest of the former mayor, the owner’s wife, and two employees for selling THC-laced substances. Despite no crime on his part, Holliday claims he was unjustly detained and questioned, prompting the lawsuit for wrongful confinement.

Mississippi State researchers granted $630,000 to tackle ham mites
SUMMARY: The federal government has awarded $630,000 to researchers at Mississippi State’s Agricultural and Forestry Experiment Station to improve food quality and safety in specialty dry-cured ham by combating the ham mite, Tryophagus putrescentiae. Led by Wes Schilling, the research team is testing three control methods: a biodegradable cellulose film made from food-safe nanoparticles, various fumigants, and UV-C traps. A cost-benefit analysis of each treatment will be conducted. Collaborating with the team are experts from Kansas State University and local ham producers. Managing mite infestations is essential for the profitability of small, family-owned businesses in the ham industry.
